I keep all my models in purpose made cases and I'm starting this post with a view of the first of these. The first shot shows the lid on. After that I'll only post shots with the lids off. I try to keep the cases themed in some way and once I have a full case I print a floor showing the car details.

The three 962s are all Spark, the Kremers are both from PM kits. The Gulf car I made, the other one is a GPM studio build.

Bang tidy. You are a talented model maker Mr Williams - all of your self builds on this thread and others are class. I don't suppose you do freelance work? I have a drawer full of kits looking for someone who can wield the super-glue better than I can.

Very impressive Tim. I especially like the grouping of the Lola's which really highlight the subtle differences that Spark & Bizarre incorporate in each model.

Having spent quite a bit of time in the last month screwing my models back into their display cases for my overseas move, I can appreciate it must take a long time just to work out the positioning of the models in the case and position the screw holes so they all line up perfectly.

There's a perspex fabricator in Brighton that makes them to my design and dimensions. Some of the cases hold ten models i.e. a decade of winners. I'll post some of those soon. Others hold the cars from just one year.

Thanks for the compliments. There's enough mental and physical stress building my own and I have a backlog of about 70 or 80 kits so doing for someone else isn't on the agenda. But thanks anyway.

Can't think of a much better collection than this Tim. Perfect theme for me, well chosen models and displayed beautifully. I find myself longing for a lot of them, but I do feel particularly compelled to bolster my '50s decade now.

Here are the winners from the 60s and the 80s. Note the gap where the 1962 car should be. The Redline models is unaffordable and the Renaissance kit is daunting - I don't have good experiences with Renaissance. - I can wait.
